When It Makes Sense

When Estimate Writing Makes Sense

Estimate writing is the right fit when the job needs to be built from the available documentation, not just critiqued.

  • There is no usable estimate yet
  • The job needs to be built from photos and scope notes
  • The field team has documentation but no finished estimate
  • Internal staff does not have time to write it
  • The estimate needs to be outsourced to keep the job moving
  • The existing draft is too rough or incomplete to salvage

What You'll Need to Have Ready

Before reaching out, it helps to have a general sense of the following — no need to send anything just yet.

  • Type of loss (water, fire, wind, etc.)
  • General scope of affected areas
  • Whether an estimate already exists
  • Any specific concerns or disputed items
  • Rough timeline or urgency of the job

Once we connect, we can discuss exactly what documentation will be needed for your specific job.

What You Receive

The deliverable is a written Xactimate estimate built from the documentation you provide.

  • A written Xactimate estimate based on the available documentation
  • Organized scope built from the job information provided
  • A working estimate for contractor use and review
  • Revisions when clarified scope or additional information changes the job

Our Method

How Estimate Writing Works

01

Send the job documentation

Photos, notes, measurements, and any relevant details about the project.

02

Documentation is reviewed

The job information is reviewed to determine the scope and estimate-writing needs.

03

The estimate is written

The estimate is created in Xactimate based on the documentation provided.

04

Delivered for your review

You review it and clarify any remaining scope issues as needed.

Not Sure if You Need Estimate Writing or Estimate Review?

Estimate writing is the right fit when you need a full estimate built. Estimate review is the right fit when an estimate already exists and needs a second set of eyes.
